Anyone seen these guys before?

[N204life]

First off sorry for the crappy quality i couldn't figure out how to get high resolution . Anyways 2 guys no more than 21 were scoping out my house asking for someone that dosent live here, and this is the second time i guess they have done it (i wasn't home for both) in like 6 months. Well me being a former dubber i thought I would stop by and pay a visit and say hi and maybe get some help from you guys. Dont know if they keep stopping by for no good or maybe they really are looking for me who knows, but i would like to know.
2 younger guys, look to be hispanic. 1 of the 2 was wearing a VW sweatshirt. The car was MK3 jetta white w/black trim, w/black hood and golf headlights and tinted tails. Looks like it might have BBS wheels. Looks like this person is obviously a dubber so i thought someone around here has to know them. Any info would be great! Thanks guys

And then there's the stories that always seem to come from Tacoma, Spokane, Seattle, Bellingham, etc, etc. Theft happens everywhere.

[Jazzydub]

Stupid things only happen in Eugene and Pullman.

On topic: No clue, sorry.

Spokane?!? We're angels. Nothing bad ever happens here.

[karlorado]

I seem to remember a certain fiasco in Eugene with a guy named Eugene

[prjkt84]

I was standing at my pass side door and a guy walked up looking in my car. I asked him if I could help him and who he was looking for. he replied he was looking for a guy named steven and started to walk away and said i had a nice car. Going to take my weapon permit class . Nobody named steve lives at my house. I live a few blocks from downtown vancouver so watch out for a chubby teen wearing jordans . Keep your doors locked and guns loaded.

[adam the caveman]

yeah theft happens everywhere. arm yourself and know your rights.

and once again, at least we're not "jdm".
a wise man recently refered to their following as a "feeding frenzy", at least we have fellowship

And this is why my nice car lives in the locked garage.

locked in storage, alarmed unit and premises. brought out once or twice a year. they can steal the 4.2L Audi i dont care about that one.

[WeenerBoy]

same car?

[DubluvNW03]

^^^^^^ would make sense... pretty sure that sweatshirt he was wearing was bought in seaside... thats where i got mine, along with like 20 other people at crosshaul

[speeding-g6O]

no that car in the picture of the video has a trunk wing. and white mirrors.

i understand that, but identical wheels, black hood, roof rack.. it has been some time since that cruise.. i also know that this is my friend Rick's old Glx...

I don't think they're the same wheels, the one's in the security pic look a lot like RS/RS reps... (I'd guess the latter just from the depth of the wheel)

[WeenerBoy]

what depth? do you have higher resolution photos that you're hiding? cause i cant tell the "depth" from that photo.. i said identical, not the same

[amotion578]

Look at the wheels, it doesn't look like there's much lip to them. Some reps have that same no lip look, that's why when I look at that picture, I see RS or RS reps (I kinda doubt they're real RS' though for some reason). In addition, there's no shadowing on the center of the wheel as if it had big lips.

As for the design of the wheel itself, I guess I don't know what you mean when you say "identical" because as far as I can gather, the security footage shows RS or RS rep wheels and the pic posted of that other Jetta has LM/LM reps. I wouldn't say those two are identical, personally. No hate

No lip RS:


RS with lip (note the shadowing on the rear wheel):

[WeenerBoy]

yikes, you took that completely the wrong the way.. im not even going to argue with you anymore

[N204life]

same car?

That looks to be the same car from what I can tell. Do you know who it is?

[Jazzydub]

Unless they replaced or painted the rear bumper then it's a different car. No black trim vs. black trim on rear bumper.

[URTurboFreak]

White side mirrors too

[Twelvizm]

what depth? do you have higher resolution photos that you're hiding? cause i cant tell the "depth" from that photo.. i said identical, not the same

Survallance photo clearly looks like RS-alike wheels, the ones you posted are LM-alikes.

[FuzzyDice]

Just had my tweakervision installed sunday. Gotta love having all your angles covered.

[89-digi-jetta]

same car?

this is not the same car. this is ricks old glx, but not the car in question

plus the racks on the car in question have bike mounts, the rack on the glx has just thee bars.

[jiffyjetta]

Not the same cars.
Although, I do agree that the sweatshirt he is wearing looks just like the ones we got at sea side.

[amotion578]

yikes, you took that completely the wrong the way.. im not even going to argue with you anymore

wasn't sarcasm.. you just didnt understand what i said.

if i were being sarcastic, you'd know and youd more than likely be unhappy with me

[miggs]

Ive seen that car around Mcminnville a couple times. Actually saw it just last night. I am 99% sure it is the same car.

[wRek]

Some of the arguments being made for why it couldn't be the same car as the photos are hilarious...

The rear bumper can easily be textured in a half an hour. The mirrors can be painted with a can of touch up paint. The bike mounts for the rack attach TO the cross bars. Wheels change all the time.

I'm not saying it's the same car, but all of those things could change in less than a day without even breaking a sweat.

[MEISTER]

Unless they replaced or painted the rear bumper then it's a different car. No black trim vs. black trim on rear bumper.

Also the car in the OP has a wing...
